Happy New E-Bike Day to Bryce! 🚲⚡

His motto is, “Go big or go home,” and he definitely lived up to it with this Momentum Bicycles PakYak! This versatile e-cargo bike is built to haul gear, groceries, and just about anything else you can throw at it.

Congratulations, Bryce! We can’t wait to see you and your PakYak hauling around town. Enjoy the ride!

Kevin and Rebecca have been great friends and supporters of the shop since day one.

As it turns out, Kevin grew up riding BMX, so we share a lot of the same memories. For a while now, he’s been thinking about a bike that could bring back those carefree days of cruising around town with no particular destination in mind. He wanted something simple: a single-speed, BMX-inspired bike that’s perfect for exploring back alleys, hopping a curb or two, and just having fun.

Kevin isn’t alone. The world of big-wheel BMX bikes has exploded in recent years, with several brands building beautiful bikes that capture the spirit of BMX while offering the comfort and practicality of a larger bike.

The Fairdale Bikes Taj is a perfect example. From the moment we unboxed it, we were blown away by the attention to detail and the stunning Translucent Winter Blue finish. Best of all, it rides just like the BMX bike you remember—playful, responsive, and guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
Congratulations on the new ride, Kevin! We can’t wait to hear about your adventures.

We're getting super excited about Moonrise Underground which kicks off this Saturday morning! Moonrise Underground is our bikepacking event on the Prairie Spirit Trail. For those of you who are participating, Posh Nosh in Garnett is offering a great lunch menu. If you're not participating, you can also stop in and enjoy the lunch and chat with the riders. We hope you'll stop in and let them know how much you appreciate their support for this event.

THIS Saturday only we will be open for lunch to the public and for cyclists coming through Garnett. This is the limited menu. We’ve designed this to be very quick so we can hopefully get people in and out and back on the bike - but of course you’re welcome to linger inside or out as long as you’d like. Crossing fingers for good weather for the riders! ☀️🍅🚴🏻
